Channel Chief Leonard DiMiceli is a Nuvotera and SpamSoap veteran — so it’s a safe bet an MSP security push is coming. We’ll share more thoughts later today.

7. Office Security: Konica Minolta’s Workplace Hub — which features automation functions and security, IoT device management and data storage in a single platform — will leverage the Sophos XG Firewall. Konica also owns AllCovered, a managed IT services business unit…

3. Cloud Security & Compliance:iland, which specializes in IaaS, DRaaS & cloud backup, now offers its Secure Cloud Services from a new data centre location in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. With the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) deadline looming in May 2018, as well as Brexit negotiations underway, the opening of this new data centre means that iland will continue to meet the data privacy requirements of customers in the EU, the company claims.
